Orchestra announcements
Dear TRDR Orchestra Students and Families,
I am happy to announce the plan for returning any school instruments and music stands. Thank you for your patience while we came up with this end-of-the-year plan. You may have also seen this information sent out June 8 from Principal Jett. It has been determined that instruments should be returned along with all technology, library books, and other school materials.
All TRDR instruments and music stands will need to be returned to Hamlin Middle School, 326 Centennial Blvd, in Springfield.
Here are the windows that are available to return instruments and music stands to Hamlin:
Tuesday June 16, 10:00am-7:00pm
Wednesday June 17, 10:00am-7:00pm
Thursday June 18, 10:00am-7:00pm
Wednesday June 24, 10:00am-7:00pm
Please do not return instruments to the TRDR building. If you are unable to return your items to Hamlin on those dates, or you have already returned your instrument to TRDR, please let me know right away.
To prepare the instrument, please do the following things:
Loosen the hair on your bow (three turns will do it) and make sure it is safely in the instrument case.
Remove any music or other personal items from the instrument case. You get to keep your orchestra packet (with student pictures on it).
Make sure all latches and zippers are as secure as possible.
Bring back all pieces of the metal folding music stand. Do not worry if the box or the plastic feet covers are missing.
Make sure a staff person at Hamlin checks in both your instrument and stand, so they are officially accounted for and recorded. They will give you a receipt to show that they have been returned. I recommend that you hold on to that receipt in case there is a discrepancy somewhere!
Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
